Kids: “is it bad for the environment to burn off?”

Me: “we are now in what’s called a negative feedback loop where I have to burn off to ensure the house doesn’t burn down which drives global warming, which … you get the idea

Kids: 😳

How long into the apocalypse do you reckon the expression “now we’re cooking with gas!” lasts?

This is totally random but several years ago an acquaintance in China remarked that she absolutely hated the following emoji -> 🙂

To be precise it was the version on Weibo iirc, but the sentiment was the same - it looks like a fake smile - insincere - almost condescending.

I didn't really get it at the time but the more I see people use 🙂 the more I tend to agree, especially when there are so many better alternatives, like 😁 , 😊 , 😃 and 😺 .

Anyone else bothered by 🙂 or is it just me? 🤓
